How a Watch Works     (www.youtube.com)

This video from 1949 produced by the Hamilton Watch company (A heritage American watchmaker), uses a Hamilton 747 movement to instruct the audience on how an automatic wristwatch (or pocketwatch) works. Save for some improvements and complications by various manufacturers, the general engineering concept for a basic timepiece has been largely unchanged for 300 or so years. I am not very mechanically minded, but certainly the Mechanics, Engineers and Architects amongst you should be informed/entertained by this video.

I've got a few nice watches but I'm always afraid to wear them to work so for $40 bucks I bought this Timex and I have to say I love it. The backlight is much better than a comparable Casio.

I Have the Same Watch as Nikola Jokic. It Is One Of the Least Expensive Shown. It’s about $11,500.

I really want Jalen Brunson’s Rose Gold Day/Date. That’s probably about $60K:

Whats your opinion of these watches @TheBigGuyFromQueens?

Rolex Releases the Land Dweller. Me to Rolex: "Meh. No Thanks."     (www.hodinkee.com)

I would only accept one of these as a gift. I'd never actually buy one. Kinda ugly. I think they saw the popularity of Tissot returning to a 1970's themed case and bracelet integration with the PXR Powermatics and filed suit. I don't like the dial at all. The only exciting thing about this is the sapphire case back. I hope Rolex offers that more in the future.

$15K is about as high as I go for a watch and that's no casual purchase on my salary.

Adjusted for inflation, that watch would cost $2853 today. While it isn’t a Patek, Rolex or an Omega, it would be something like a Tag Heuer or an Oris—a very respectable watch for a 20 year-old college kid to have and certainly one worth keeping and passing down.

While it isn't a Rolex or an Omega, it is still a good watch and at $789 with tax, I'm getting a lot of bang for my buck. Now I have figure out a way to pay this thing off in a month before I get charged interest.

Pretty cool looking watch. Its about 3K and the snake feature has an on/off button. If you let the snake run it will last for around 38 hours before you need to change the battery

I was watching some Sopranos clips and I very surprised to see the character of Vito with an Oris. Fanook that he was, he was a top earner. I would think he would have had a Datejust or maybe an AP or a Ulysses Nardin. Oris is a really good watch, though. I have the Aquis Big Cherry, myself. No complaints. I just think it is a bit understated for a character like Vito.

The dial/bezel is too small on some of these for me, but still super cool.

Looks Like My G-Steel Died Again     (Wristwatches)

I have had it 4 or 4.5 years and this is the 2nd time this has happened. It is sufficiently charged, but will not pair with my phone or do anything at all.

I love the toughness of the case and bracelet and the functions like backlighting, but overall this watch has been quirky and disappointing.

Meanwhile, someone has found an 60 year-old automatic Longines or Hamilton in their dead uncle’s junk drawer and shook it twice and it’s working.
